<p>England have launched a new white-ball era after dropping Jonny Bairstow and Moeen Ali from their forthcoming clashes against Australia.</p>

<p>Bairstow and Ali have over 400 international appearances between them but the veteran pair have been deemed expendable as England revamp their limited overs line-up following disappointing ODI and T20 World Cup campaigns.</p>

<p>Matthew Mott was sacked as England's limited over head coach last month and the changes continued with Monday's squad announcement.</p>

<p>Five uncapped players have been called up for Marcus Trescothick's first assignment as interim coach.</p>

<p>Left-arm seamer Josh Hull, all-rounder Jacob Bethell and pace bowler John Turner were selected in both formats, while Dan Mousley and Jordan Cox come into the T20 group.</p>

<p>Moeen had been an influential vice-captain to Jos Buttler but is now 37 and has acknowledged his international career was winding down.</p>

<p>His role as a spin bowling all-rounder will be covered by his Warwickshire team-mates Bethell and Mousley.</p>

England axe Jonny Bairstow, Moeen Ali for white-ball series against Australia

<p>Defending champion England beat the USA by 10 wickets on Sunday (June 23) in Super 8 stage match to become first side with a semi-final berth in the ongoing T20 World Cup 2024.</p>

<p>Chasing a target of 116, England cruised home in 9.4 overs with&nbsp;all 10 wickets in hand. English skipper Jos Buttler led the small chase with a blistering 83 not out off just 38 balls while his opening partner Phil Salt scored unbeaten 25 off 21. Buttler hit seven sixes and six fours in innings.</p>

<p>England reached fifty in 5.2 overs before finishing the powerplay with 60 runs on board. Buttler then upped the ante as they scored remaining 46 runs in just 3.4 overs.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Earlier, England won the toss and elected to field first. The decision proved right in the first over itself with Reece Topley removing USA opener Andries Gous on the sixth ball of the match.</p>

<p>Nitish Kumar and Steven Taylor then added 34 runs for the second wicket before Sam Curran dismissed the latter on a team score of 43. England leg spinner Adil Rashid then took wickets in his two consecutive overs to dent USA's innings.</p>

<p>Part-time spinner Liam Livingstone then removed Milind Kumar on the last ball of the 15th over to bring USA five down for 88 runs. Former New Zealand international Corey Anderson (29 off 28), meanwhile, tried to keep the innings going.</p>

<p>Harmeet Singh also offered some resistance with 17-ball 21 and took the team past 100. He was dismissed on the last ball of the 18th over by Sam Curran.</p>

<p>Chris Jordan then took remaining four wickets in the next five balls without giving away a run as USA were dismissed for a paltry 115 in 18.5 overs.</p>

<p>England finished the Super 8 stage with two wins and a loss in three games.</p>

T20 World Cup 2024: Chris Jordan, Jos Buttler blow away USA as England book semi-final spot

<p>Pacer Chris Jordan became the first England bowler to take a hattrick in T20 Internationals as he destroyed the USA lower order during the Super 8 clash in Barbados on Sunday (Jun 23).&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;</p>

<p>The right-arm speedster was shoehorned into the playing XI due to the indifferent form of Mark Wood but showed his class by ripping through the inexperienced yet dogged US batting lineup. The milestone was all the more special for Jordan as it came at Jordan's birthplace.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>

<p>"Unbelievable feeling (to take the hattrick), was good to restrict them. Getting it (hattrick) at a special place is always nice. Glad I was able to hit on the target. Just finished it off towards the end," said Jordan.</p>

<p>"We summed up the conditions pretty well, we knew they will came hard at us in the powerplay, USA have been playing well in the tournament. Rashid set up the game for us," he added.&nbsp;</p>

Pacer Chris Jordan became the first England bowler to take a hattrick in T20 Internationals as he destroyed the USA lower order during the Super 8 clash in Barbados on Sunday (Jun 23).

Pacer Chris Jordan became the first England bowler to take a hattrick in T20 Internationals as he destroyed the USA lower order during the Super 8 clash in Barbados on Sunday (Jun 23). The right-arm speedster was shoehorned into the playing XI due to the indifferent form of Mark Wood but showed his class by ripping through the inexperienced yet dogged US batting lineup. The milestone was all the more special for Jordan as it came at Jordan's birthplace. "Unbelievable feeling (to take the hattrick), was good to restrict them. Getting it (hattrick) at a special place is always nice. Glad I was able to hit on the target. Just finished it off towards the end," said Jordan. "We summed up the conditions pretty well, we knew they will came hard at us in the powerplay, USA have been playing well in the tournament. Rashid set up the game for us," he added.

T20 World Cup, ENG vs USA: Chris Jordan becomes first English player to take T20I hattrick - Watch

<p>Mumbai Indians star Chris Jordan was on a rampage in the Big Bash League (BBL) season 13 after he smashed the fastest fifty of the season. The contest on Wednesday (Dec 20) between Hobart Hurricanes and Perth Scorchers saw Jordan score the fastest fifty of the tournament when the former were batting first. While doing so he also equalled a unique Chris Gayle record at the Perth Stadium. However, unfortunate for Jordan he could prevent his team from defeat despite scoring 59 runs and scalping the only wicket in Perth’s innings.</p>

<h2><strong>Jordan runs riot</strong></h2>

<p>Playing at the Perth Stadium, it was not the best start for the visitors as they were 47/5 at one stage with Perth bowlers running riot. However, Jordan took the initiative in his own hands and smashed the ball all over the place. His innings consisted of 5 sixes and 6 fours and&nbsp;helped Hobart reach a respectable total of 172/8 in their 20 overs. He struck at a strike rate of 295, which is the joint-best for any batter having scored a fifty in the BBL.</p>

<p>Nikhil Chaudhary (40) and Mitchell Owen (28) also played a big role in Hobart reaching 172 having earlier struggled against Perth bowlers.&nbsp;Jason Behrendorff was the star of the show for Perth as he ended with figures of 25/4 in his four overs. Andrew Tye also scalped two wickets but was expensive having given away 49 runs in his four overs. Lance Morris and Ashton Agar both had one wicket each during the Hobart innings.</p>

<p>England cricket team’s preparations have suffered a major setback as star bowler Josh Tongue has suffered an undisclosed injury that has seen him ruled out of the T20I series against New Zealand. Tongue, hopeful for a debut in the New Zealand series has joined John Turner on the casualty list as they miss out on the shortest format of the game. Chris Jordan has been drafted in as a replacement for Tongue as he continues his recovery.</p>

<p>Tongue had a promising start to his international career when he made his debut in the Test setup. He featured in the only Test against Ireland in June while also earning a surprise call-up to the Lord’s Test against Australia in the Ashes 2023. He has 10 wickets in two matches for the national team and his impressive spell in the Test and The Hundred saw him in the reckoning for the T20I set-up.</p>

ENG vs NZ T20I Series: Josh Tongue ruled out through injury, Chris Jordan roped in as replacement

<p>Ahead of Mumbai Indians' (MI) IPL 2023 home game versus the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) on Tuesday (May 09), the five-time winners announced Chris Jordan as Jofra Archer's replacement for the remainder of the season. Archer ended his miserable run in IPL 2023 by featuring in&nbsp;five games for Rohit Sharma &amp; Co. where he accounted for only&nbsp;two wickets at an economy rate of 9.50.</p>

<p>MI's official Twitter handle shared a post to update the&nbsp;fans on Tuesday morning. Sharing a picture of Jordan bowling in the MI nets, the&nbsp;caption read, "𝗖𝗵𝗿𝗶𝘀 𝗝𝗼𝗿𝗱𝗮𝗻 𝗷𝗼𝗶𝗻𝘀 𝗠𝘂𝗺𝗯𝗮𝗶 𝗜𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗮𝗻𝘀</p>

IPL 2023: Chris Jordan replaces Jofra Archer for remainder of season ahead of MI-RCB tie

<p>In the latest news coming from the Mumbai Indians camp, England T20 specialist bowler Chris Jordan has signed for them for the remainder of the season. As per the reports, the 34-year-old is roped in as a replacement, of whom that is uncertain right now.</p>

<p>In the absence of their premier ace bowler, Jasprit Bumrah, who is out due to a back injury, Mumbai visibly struggled to find his replacement; and while they have international pacers in Riley Meredith, who replaced Jhye Richardson and Jason Behrendorff, the former five-time champions have failed to get the best out of them.</p>

<p>Ahead of the 1000th IPL game on Sunday between Mumbai and Rajasthan Royals, England’s Jofra Archer, who recently returned from Belgium after undergoing a minor treatment on his troubling elbow, is expected to play.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The right-arm seamer Jordan had previously played in this cash-rich league, having represented several teams, including Royal Challengers Bangalore, Punjab Kings, SunRisers Hyderabad and Chennai Super Kings. In 28 IPL innings, Jordan has picked 27 wickets at an average of 30,85 and an economy of 9.32.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Meanwhile, his latest exploits in the franchise-based T20 tournament put weight behind his selection as playing for Gulf Giants at the ILT20 tournament in February this year, Jordan ended up being the highest wicket-taker, with 20 scalps at an impressive average of 13.80.</p>

IPL 2023: T20 specialist Chris Jordan joins Mumbai Indians for remainder of season

<p>Chennai Super Kings (CSK) will be desperately looking to get off the mark in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 when they take on Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) at the DY Patil Stadium in Mumbai on Tuesday (April 12). The defending champions have endured a shambolic start to the season and have lost their first four matches in a row.</p>

<p>MS Dhoni's decision to step down from captaincy and hand over the baton to star all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja has not worked well for the four-time champions, who have struggled to get going this season. CSK are in a must-win situation against RCB, who have lost only out of their first four games so far this season.</p>

<p>CSK's biggest concern this season has been the poor form of opener Ruturaj Gaikwad and the lack of good starts at the top. While Gaikwad is yet to fire this season, his opening partner Robin Uthappa has also failed to convert his starts into big scores for the Men in Yellow. In the middle order, Ambati Rayudu is yet to find his groove while MS Dhoni has been under the scanner once again for his poor strike rate.</p>

<p>CSK were dealt with a huge blow ahead of the start of the season with an injury to their key pacer Deepak Chahar and his absence has derailed their season. In Chahar's absence, CSK's pace attack has lacked venom and the likes of Mukesh Chaudhary and Tushar Deshpande have failed to impress.</p>

<p>In their last game against Sunrisers Hyderabad, CSK bowlers were taken to the cleaners by Abhishek Sharma, who slammed a brilliant 75 to help his team chase down the target of 155 runs comfortably. CSK had dropped South African all-rounder Dwaine Pretorious for the game and picked Sri Lankan mystery spinner&nbsp;Maheesh Theekshana in his place.</p>

<p>However, the Sri Lankan spinner went wicket-less while conceding 31 runs off his four overs. CSK might bring back Pretorious in the XI for Theekshana as the Proteas all-rounder has done well with the ball in the season so far. CSK might also play him in place of Chris Jordan if they want to keep&nbsp;Theekshana in the fray.</p>

CSK might bring back Pretorious in the XI for Theekshana as the Proteas all-rounder has done well with the ball in the season so far. CSK might also play him in place of Chris Jordan if they want to keep Theekshana in the fray.

Dwaine Pretorious to return? Ravindra Jadeja-led CSK's predicted playing XI for IPL 2022 clash against RCB

<p>Chennai Super Kings (CSK) will be aiming to bring an end to their losing streak and bag their first win of the season when they lock horns with Punjab Kings (PBKS) in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022. The match will be played at the Brabourne Stadium in Mumbai.&nbsp; Defending champions CSK have endured their worst start to a season having lost their first two matches in a row.</p>

<p>The Ravindra Jadeja-led side lost their first game against Kolkata Knight Riders by six wickets before slipping to another six-wicket loss against Lucknow Super Giants in their last game. The absence of pacer Deepak Chahar has hurt CSK this season as their bowlers have been taken to the cleaners in the first two games.</p>

<p>While Chahar continues his recovery and is expected to join the team later this month, CSK also missed the services of both Adam Milne and Chris Jordan for their last game against Lucknow. Milne suffered a side strain during CSK's opener against KKR while Jordan was hospitalised due to tonsils.</p>

<p>Milne is unlikely to make the cut against Punjab Kings but Jordan might feature in the playing XI after the likes of Tushar Deshpande and Mukesh Chaudhary were taken to the cleaners in the last game against Lucknow. CSK will retain the overseas trio of Dwayne Bravo, Dwayne Pretorious and Moeen Ali from the Lucknow game and might play an extra pacer in Jordan.</p>

<p>The Jadeja-led side has also struggled to get off to good starts in the tournament so far as opener Ruturaj Gaikwad is yet to fire with the bat. While Robin Uthappa has looked in good touch both as an opener and at no.3, Gaikwad is yet to get going for CSK and will be hopeful of finding his mojo back against Punjab Kings on Sunday.</p>

<p>Captain Jadeja will have his task cut out against Punjab Kings, who have one win and one loss in their first two games this season. CSK might also look at handing a debut to young Rajvardhan Hangargekar, who can bowl at a good pace and can also be a pinch hitter down the order.</p>

IPL 2022: Chris Jordan, Rajvardhan Hangargekar to feature? CSK's predicted playing XI for Punjab Kings clash

<p>Chennai Super Kings (CSK) will be without the services of two of their key players when they take the field against Kolkata Knight Riders in the opening match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 on Saturday (March 26). CSK will be missing Indian pacer Deepak Chahar and England all-rounder Moeen Ali for the game.</p>

<p>While Chahar is still recovering from his injury and is expected to miss at least a couple of weeks of action for CSK, Ali is yet to receive his visa for India and is currently stuck in London. Despite having applied for the visa a long time back, Ali is yet to receive approval and leave for India to join the rest of the CSK squad ahead of the new season.</p>

<p>If Ali manages to land in India today (March 23) only then will he be able to feature in the playing XI for CSK in their opening game against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) on March 26 (Saturday).&nbsp;All players are required to serve at least 3 days of isolation upon landing in their team hotel. Ali is thus likely to miss CSK's opener against Shreyas Iyer's men.</p>

<p>In the absence of Ali, CSK have a number of players on their roster who can take the England all-rounder's spot in the playing XI against KKR. Here is a look at three players who can take his spot in the side:</p>

<p><strong>1) Mitchell Santner</strong></p>

<p>New Zealand all-rounder Mitchell Santner can be a like-to-like replacement for Moeen&nbsp;Ali in the CSK line-up. While Robin Uthappa can take Ali's no.3 spot in the top-order, Santner can be slotted in the middle-order. He has been with CSK for quite some time now and is a great utility player who can contribute with both the bat and the ball.</p>

<p><strong>2) Shivam Dube&nbsp;</strong></p>

<p>Indian all-rounder Shivam Dube can also take Moeen's spot in the playing XI which will allow CSK to play four quality overseas players in the form of Devon Conway, Dwayne Bravo, Chris Jordan and Adam Milne all together. CSK can also include Sri Lankan spinner Maheesh Theekshana in place of Jordan.</p>

<p><strong>3) Chris Jordan&nbsp;</strong></p>

<p>England pacer Chris Jordan can be an excellent option in the death overs for CSK and also swing his bat in the tail. Jordan can be CSK's fourth overseas player in the XI along with Conway, Bravo and Milne. Uthappa can bat at number three with Rayudu at 4 and Ravindra Jadeja at number five to allow Jordan to be included in the XI.</p>
